Library Always Has Interesting Displays Anyone entering Room 104 might have heard oral interpretations being given by the Speech students. In another class one would realize that one-act plays were being written. Mr. Cowan teaches these classes. The Seniors in Government discussed such up-to- date topics as the budget, civil rights, Communism, and the Viet Nam situation. Teachers, textbooks, news- papers, and magazines help students to understand the people of the world. Mr. Bush has led the Seniors in Government and Economics for four years. This year many new books and an excellent art col- lection came into our library through federal assistance and donations from the Class of 1966. Our Librarian, Mrs. Fitch, had student helpers assisting her with checking books on the shelves. In the Library Book Room is Our Audio-Visual Center with Mr. Hunter as Director. 22

Mr. John Hunter, American History instructor, lectures on public education in the 1800's. Students in World History class studied the past European and Asian wars. In American History classes the juniors found that all events centered around a major theme and a recurring theme. For instance, the industrial change after the Civil War led to the present constant effort of industry to get control of the economy. World History students studied under two new teachers this year with Mr. Brian Veenhuis, the first semester, and Mr. Murphy, the second semester. Mr. John Hunter, our American History and Geog- raphy instructor, has taught at NBHS ten years. Hable Vd. en espanol, por favor. These are the words you are likely to hear when passing Mrs. Nancy Butterfield's room. If you pause, you will find her drilling her Spanish classes, or perhaps the students will be sitting at the booths listening to the tapes and re- peating what they hear. During other hours of the day, you will find Latin students there, diligently translating a passage from Caesar. Mrs. Butterfield is Chairman of the Social Science and English department. Above: Mr. Robert Perrigo, English instructor, cheerfully opens his classroom door. Right: Some Spanish I stu- dents practice in the booths while others do their textbook assignments. 21
